Current Events > Can you use Chopsticks?

(+) Yeah! (+)

I can now but i honestly struggled with them for awhile....one night i was at a Japanese restaurant and i told myself "don't get a fork, learn..."...and some how my hands figured it out. So i got it down now.....Truthfully, i still prefer a fork. i don't see why they're better but to each their own...

yeah. i was bad at it before. then i moved to korea for a year. it was get good or die.

Well enough that most of my wifes family and friends are impressed by how good I am. (Honestly Im not sure how many non-Asians they interact with for these compliments to mean much lol) But not good enough that I can flex and pick up a single grain of dry rice, or use the chopsticks to hold more chopsticks.

I actually like them better than forks for a lot of things. Except like, steak and stuff.

since i was a kid yes

I can but I have some trouble with noodles so I tend to spin them.

Not really. I generally don't bother, since you can ask for silverware at most asian places in america anyway.

You only need to move like...2 fingers to use chopsticks. But of course if you're racist you'll go on a rant about why chopsticks are dumb and how silverware is superior and give the waiter a death stare for asking if you want a fork or chopsticks.

yeah. I'm kinda awkward with Korean chopsticks though. I'm most used to Japanese chopsticks

CE can't answer a simple question about chopsticks without resorting to racism.

Ya, prefer it if I'm at an Asian place. Hate that some give you forks and not chopsticks for take out

Yes.. I use them daily

Since before I could remember.

I was in a restaurant last year and the Chinese bartender complimented my chopstick skills. I felt so good about myself.
